89911,
I also saw the same ad in last weekend's LA Times classified and called to inquire. How many times will an '04 GT3 w/ 40K miles sell for $26K? Well, maybe at a Pick-A-Part wrecking yard nearest you. Got the same response - received the same message via email. Phone number prefix was in Oklahoma (but cell phone in Nigeria or elsewhere). At that point, I stopped when eBay was supposedly involved in the transaction, but wondered too where the scam begins. Yeah, probably a matter of slowly accumulating one's personal data, enough to extricate funds from you directly or indirectly.
If anyone is interested in buying this, let me know. I have her email address.
